Drinking water quality in Donville-les-Bains
PFAS in drinking water
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.0018 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 2 % of the limit. (29 July 2025)
This source does not list each PFAS substance separately, so we cannot compare this water with the health limit.
4 PFAS (see each substance)
